Moog's newly announced modular synthesizers aren't really new at all. They're recreated versions of giant hardware the company originally released in 1973. This is big news—like literally, the synths are huge.

These days, you probably recognize Moog more for its (relatively) compact all-in-one synths like the Minimoog Voyager and Phatty lines. But before this road-ready synths were the norm, Moog was responsible for churning out modular systems that were responsible for some of the most legendary bleeps and bloops in history. In recent years, old school modular systems have made a comeback in the form of a boutique culture teeming with enthusiasts.

Still, this isn't exactly a return to old form forever. The faithfully recreated Moogs are extremely limited and to own an oversized piece of synthesizer history you're going to have to pull out a big stack of dollars. There will be 55 System 55s for $35,000 each, System 35s, for $22,000 per each, and 150 Model 15s $10,000 each.
